Respect your car: use quality parts and products

How can you be sure that your service repairer is using
quality parts when they service and repair your car?

When it comes to your car's maintenance it’s very important,
for both the longevity and value of your car, to
use only quality brands and genuine parts - not cheap, generic
products.

Take engine oils, for example. There are a lot of companies
selling engine oil, but to make sure your engine is getting the protection it
deserves you're always better off sticking with the well known brands like
Castrol or Valvoline. At Cooper Automotive we prefer Valvoline engine oil,
and most of the time we use a specification that is better than the
manufacturer recommends to make sure your car is getting the best protection
possible.

Another important example is your repairer's choice of brake
pads. There are a whole heap of cheaper brake pads out there that some
mechanics will put on your car - but we refuse to use them. The safety of you
and your family is our first concern, so we only use Bendix brake pads
which are the best quality brake pads on the market.

Most people won't know too much about which brands are good
or bad for their car. The best thing you can do to guarantee the quality of the
parts in your car is to choose a service provider that you can
trust and who guarantees their workmanship. If they are guaranteeing
their workmanship you can bet they are using quality products.

It goes without saying that at Cooper Automotive we only use
the best quality parts and spares - becuse we care about your car!
